class GIMP_CLIENT
Summary
top
This class talks to a standard Script-Fu Gimp server (localhost:10008).
Contrarily to SOCKETS which polls its client socket, it also waits for an answer using the sequencer (less CPU-involved).

prepare (events: EVENTS_SET)
effective procedure
{LOOP_ITEM}
top
Use events to describe condition that make this job ready to continue.
events describe the conditions to be satisfied before running this job for one more step.
require
  • events /= Void
  • not events.queryable
  • not done
is_ready (events: EVENTS_SET): BOOLEAN
effective function
{LOOP_ITEM}
top
Check if this job is ready to continue his work.
events describe the events which occurred.
require
  • events /= Void
  • events.queryable
  • not done
continue
effective procedure
{LOOP_ITEM}
top
Continue to do the job.
The work to do has to be small work and non blocking, it will continue on next call.
require
  • not done
done: BOOLEAN
writable attribute
{LOOP_ITEM}
top
done returns True when the job is finished.
Then the job may be restart(ed) if it needs to run again.
restart
effective procedure
{LOOP_ITEM}
top
Configure the job like in its initial state.
Example: when some window dialog appears a second time, all jobs from this window are restarted.
require
  • done
ensure
  • not done
priority: INTEGER_32
writable attribute
{JOB, LOOP_ITEM}
top
never change a job's priority after inserting it in loop_item.
Priority should only be set at creation time.
